HFX Wanderers vs Forge Moneyline Prediction
- Moneyline Pick: Forge to Win
- Odds: -179 (Tonybet)
Forge are heavy favourites, having recorded 11 wins from 13 fixtures, collected 34 points, scored 23 goals, and conceded only eight. The Wanderers, meanwhile, have taken 16 points from 15 games, with 20 goals scored and 24 conceded.
Forge have won six of their seven away matches. Their organised possession game and wide rotations can isolate Halifax’s defenders, while the Wanderers’ more aggressive attacking approach might leave transition space for the Hammers’ mobile forwards.

The H2H record also strongly favours the visitors. They have won each of the last seven meetings and will be determined to protect their first-place position. Therefore, Forge to win is the standout pick.
HFX Wanderers vs Forge Player Prop
- Prop Bet: Nana Ampomah to Score
Nana Ampomah heads into the fixture in excellent form after scoring twice in 66 minutes against Inter Toronto. Despite limited CPL action in 2026, Ampomah has netted two goals from six shots, with four of those attempts hitting the target.
The Wanderers have conceded 24 goals in 15 league matches. Even at home, they’ve allowed 1.47 xGA per game. Ampomah usually starts on Forge’s right but drifts inside when the team enter the final third.
If the Wanderers push their full-backs forward or chase the score after falling behind, Ampomah should receive transition opportunities against an unsettled back line. His sharp form and improving minutes make him Forge’s standout option.

HFX Wanderers vs Forge Team News
HFX Wanderers Team News
Halifax squandered a 2-0 lead against Supra and lost 3-2 at home. The Wanderers controlled the first half through pressing, possession, and set pieces, yet failed to maintain the lead. Rather than slowing the match and protecting central areas, they continued playing aggressively, lost their defensive structure, and committed two penalty-box fouls.
Isaiah Johnston remains Halifax’s key player. The midfielder has scored six league goals and was tied for the CPL scoring lead before the previous round. Miguel Arilla is the team’s main creator with five assists and supplied both corner deliveries in the 2-3 loss to Supra. Marco Carducci has already made 41 saves.
Halifax’s confirmed injury concerns are Kareem Sow and Victor Akinwale. Both are doubtful for the upcoming match.
Forge Team News
Forge’s latest performance was much stronger than the 3-1 score alone suggests. They outshot Inter 28-8 and recorded nine shots on target, using an aggressive counter-press to recover possession before Toronto could escape. Their ability to introduce productive attackers is one reason the Hammers continue scoring late; they average 1.31 second-half goals per game, compared with only 0.46 before halftime.

Nana Ampomah, who scored twice in 66 minutes against Inter Toronto, is Forge’s most in-form player. Tristan Borges remains their primary creative threat, while Marko Jevremović continues to impress from left-back. Goalkeeper Dimitry Bertaud has also been outstanding, anchoring the CPL’s best defensive unit.
Forge will be without Zayne Bruno, who is away representing Canada at the Concacaf U-20 Championship.
